Indiana Cardiology Malpractice Attorneys

Cardiology is one of the most sensitive branches of medicine and, while treatments continue to advance and improve, these treatments are still vulnerable to the same lack of vigilance and negligence that can plague other kinds of medicine. The difference in cardiology cases is that needless errors can lead to serious trauma and even the death of the patient.

Common cardiology malpractice claims involve:

•  Delay in treatment
•  Discharge with signs and symptoms of heart attack
•  Emergency room errors
•  Failure to appropriately interpret EKG, cardiac catheter, etc.
•  Failure to monitor patient
•  Failure to obtain appointment consult
•  Faulty medical devices (such as pacemaker devices, stent devices, etc.)
•  Heart valve surgery or unnecessary heart surgery
•  Misdiagnosis
•  Prescription/medication errors
•  Surgical procedure errors
•  Treatment mismanagement

If you or a loved one’s cardiology treatment involved one of these factors, or any other that negatively impacted their health, then the time to seek counsel is now.
